Accelerants

Explore the Accelerants in Fire Investigation and Forensic Science Industry, a critical field focused on identifying and analyzing chemical substances used to initiate or accelerate the spread of fire. Essential in forensic analysis, this industry aids in uncovering arson crimes, ensuring safety standards, and improving fire response strategies.

Accelerants Testing and Research Services

Contract Laboratory can help you with all your Accelerants testing, analysis, scientific research and development, inspection, certification, engineering, failure investigation, and product development needs including:

Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) for detailed chemical analysis of accelerant residues
Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) for identifying organic compounds in accelerant samples
Flash point testing to determine the lowest temperature at which vapors of a volatile material will ignite
Ignition testing to assess how quickly and effectively an accelerant increases the spread of fire
Residue analysis for detecting and identifying trace amounts of accelerants on various materials

Type of Accelerants Products

Contract Laboratory can assist your company, academic institution, government agency or organization in outsourcing contract laboratories to perform testing, analysis, and product development for many Accelerants finished products, processes, systems, in-process materials, raw materials and components such as:

Liquid accelerants such as gasoline diesel kerosene
and alcohol-based solvents
Solid accelerants including matches candles and flammable solids like magnesium or thermite
Gel accelerants for controlled burning in fire performances and training simulations
Aerosol canisters for dispersing flammable substances in a fine mist
Firestarter squares and cubes for camping and emergency services
Electrical devices designed to delay ignition and serve as hidden accelerants
Accelerant detection equipment such as canine units trained to sniff out chemical residues
Chemical analysis kits for field testing and preliminary identification of accelerants

Accelerants Certifications, Licenses, and Accreditations:

Depending on your Accelerants products, you may need third-party Accelerants laboratories or research facilities with specific certifications, licenses or accreditations.

International Association of Arson Investigators (IAAI) certification for professionals in fire investigation including accelerant detection and analysis
ASTM E1618 Standard Test Method for Ignitable Liquid Residues in Extracts from Fire Debris Samples by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry
ensuring standardized testing procedures
ISO/IEC 17025 for laboratories conducting accelerant analysis
ensuring competence and reliable results
National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards for fire investigation and analysis including guidelines on accelerant detection and handling
